One of the best and most satisfying mysteries I’ve ever read.”—Elle Cosimano, New York Times bestselling author of Finlay Donovan is Killing It
“Debut novelist Kristen Perrin has done the impossible in delivering readers a quintessential English murder mystery with a fresh, unconventional approach. Idyllic country village? Check. Amateur sleuth? Check. But a fortune teller’s grim prediction coming true sixty years later? Now that makes for an enthralling tale. There’s no shortage of entertaining, well-rounded characters in this charming and multilayered whodunit, a perfect shelf companion alongside reader favorites like Agatha Christie, Richard Osman, and Nita Prose.”—Sarah Penner, New York Times bestselling author of The Lost Apothecary
“I so enjoyed this smart, original murder mystery. It’s filled with curious characters and takes place in the most gorgeous setting – the mysterious Castle Knoll – and sucked me in from the very first pages. I think fans of Richard Osman will love this one.”—Beth O’Leary, author of The Flatshare
“Grab a blanket and mug of English breakfast tea and prepare to get lost in Kristen Perrin’s delightful How to Solve Your Own Murder.

“A quaint village in southwest England, an amateur female sleuth with the deductive skills of Agatha Christie’s Hercule Poirot, and an eccentric murdered aunt come together in a brilliant and masterful whodunnit.

“Puzzle-filled…This is a low-stakes, non-terrifying mystery whose many puzzles fall in the sweet spot between risibly simple and prohibitively complicated. Castle Knoll’s unofficial name should be Nest of Vipers. As Saxon, a sneaky, spying child who has grown up to become the town’s coroner, puts it: “We’re all guilty of something.”—New York Times Book Review
“This debut…announces the arrival of a very bright new talent on the cosy crime scene. Perrin’s first mystery has wit, style and suspense as well as a feisty heroine. A delightfully refreshing story of the plots and allegiances that riddle the tiny Dorset village, where everyone has a skeleton or two in their closet. This has a Netflix series written all over it — it is that good.”—Daily Mail

“How to Solve Your Own Murder had me hooked from beginning to end…. The clues and misdirections are brilliantly created….This book is so enjoyable that I found myself doing what I haven’t done in a while—taking it with me everywhere so I could read even just another page or two. It’s a clever and carefully crafted novel that has much to recommend it.”—Book Reporter
“The pace is quick, the red herrings are plentiful, and Annie’s growth from timid wannabe writer to confident sleuth is beautifully rendered. Combining elements of Agatha Christie, Anthony Horowitz, and Midsomer Murders, this is a richly entertaining whodunit from a promising new talent.”—Publishers Weekly
“Perrin juggles characters and clues with aplomb, sketching in the past via teen Frances’ journals and immersing readers in the present through Annie’s determined, good-hearted point of view. Readers will root for her as she gains hard-won confidence in this entertaining exploration of family secrets.”—BookPage
